Hi all,
I recently had the unpleasant experience of having a client tell me that we had a misspelling on a production. The culprit was a segment done with LiveType.
I have noticed that when I select "check spelling as I type" that this function only works one time before being reset to "off."

When starting a new Live Type project I manually select
EDIT>SPELLING>Check Spelling While Typing
to keep the spell checker on when creating new text layers. I find using Control : or Control ; does not keep the spell check on continuousilly.

Victor,
Thanks for responding.
How often do you need to set the spell checker to "on"?
Do you find that you have to set the spell checker "on" every time you open a LT file? Every time you create a layer?
I have been seeing the spell checker spell-as-I-type function turn itself back off while I am in the middle of working on a LT file. It doesn't seem to stay on for the creation of multiple layers, much less stay on during an entire edit session where the program has been up and running.
Looking for a convenient way to keep spell-check on (and client complaints "off"), at all times. :-)

There are times when I have to click on CHECK SPELLING WHILE TYPING twice at the start of the project. To me it seems like it works best to select it after typing a word or two, after that it stays on for the length of the project or until I reopen Live Type then its back to square 1.
